The supplement of a angle is 4 more than 2 times it's complement. Find the measure of the angle.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = the angle
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "(180-x) = it's supplement
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "(90-x) = it's complement
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "the equation of the given statement:
\n" ); document.write( "(180-x) = 2(90-x) + 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "180 - x = 180 - 2x + 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "-x + 2x = 180 - 180 + 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check solution in original statement:
\n" ); document.write( "(180-4) = 2(90-4) + 4
\n" ); document.write( "176 = 2(86) + 4
\n" ); document.write( "176 = 172 + 4; confirms the solution of x=4
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
